Lenders are worried that the foam hides the condition of the roof timbers and prevents them from "breathing." Because they cannot see if the wood is rotting or if there are leaks, many banks will simply refuse a mortgage until the foam is professionally removed.

Open cell foam is softer and more flexible, while closed cell foam sets very hard. Both can cause issues. Closed cell foam is particularly tricky because it can put stress on the roof structure and is much harder to remove without damaging the timber.

Our team uses specialist tools to manually and mechanically extract the foam from between the rafters. We take great care to ensure the roof health is maintained and that the timber is cleaned up properly so it can be inspected by a surveyor.

Yes. In the current market, a house with spray foam is often seen as a liability. Removing it and replacing it with standard, breathable loft insulation can make the property sellable again and protects the long-term integrity of your roof.

We really wouldn't recommend it. It is a messy, difficult job that requires specialist breathing equipment and an understanding of roof structures. Doing it wrong can damage your roof tiles or the rafters themselves.
